Patient's question:
What are the nursing measures for children with cerebral palsy? My brother's child has had cerebral palsy for a year. Because he is sick and hospitalized, my sister needs to take care of everything, so my nephew comes to my aunt's place to help take care of him. But I don't know. How can I take care of such a child? Usually, they take care of themselves at home. They want to know how to take care of their children. How can cerebral palsy children be better cared for?Doctor's answer:
What type of cerebral palsy the child has, whether the muscle tension is high or low, early treatment for cerebral palsy is mainly rehabilitation therapy. When the child is over 3 years old, if they experience severe pain, high muscle tension is the best relief through surgery. However, if they are soft, ataxic, or have rhythmic bone and muscle joint conditions, they are not suitable for surgery and should only undergo rehabilitation activities. The main focus should be on rehabilitation. Other medications can be supplemented with traditional Chinese medicine.
